About EgiGeoZone Geofence
EgiGeoZone is an Android Geofencing app which uses different sensors in your phone or tablet to determine your location and then to 'trigger' different actions when entering or leaving predefined zones that you can choose. It can trigger many actions directly, or simply display a notification on screen to do so. In other words, the app works in a similar way to apps like Tasker, which allows certain events to initiate an action on your smartphone or even a remote server.
**New in the Beta: Beacon zones
* New for developers: Now you can develop your own plugins for EgiGeoZone *
* See: http://www.egigeozone.de/developer/default_en.html *
Note: To configure server connections and to send e-mails in the background a some special knowledge is necessary! Before leaving a bad review, please inquire for advice in the forum.
The following actions can be triggered when entering or leaving a zone:
- Contact a geofencing service, such as the Geofancy module from FHEM, to control home automation devices, or call your own URLs when entering or leaving a zone.
- Send a text message
- Send emails
- Other actions:
Call 'Tasker' tasks
Switch Wi-Fi on or off when entering/leaving
Switch Sound on or off when entering/leaving
Switch Bluetooth on or off when entering/leaving
- Live Tracking
Possible applications:
- Open or close your garage door, turn on the heating or turn it down, switch lights on/off, etc. EgiGeoZone can interface with most home automation servers
- Co-ordinate your car share. For example, if the driver leaves work, another person can be be automatically notified via SMS or email, allowing them to get to the meeting place on time.
- When leaving the 'Home' Zone, Bluetooth turns on enabling your phone to pair with the hands-free in your car. When you get back home, it turns Bluetooth off again, saving on your battery.
- Upon reaching work, you can have EgiGeoZone switch the sound off, and and then on again when leaving.
- Presence and absence check on servers.
- There are many more uses - our users are finding new uses for EgiGeoZone every day.

I tried installing, but when I then open it, it goes to the app info page, asking if I want to grant permissions. I say OK, but it crashes instantly.

The app can't be used unless every permission is enabled. This is the opposite of what the new android permissions system is meant to do. Users should be able to enable only the permissions for the features that they need. UPDATE: Excellent work, I'll give it another go.

Why is there no option to give 'zero' stars?

Easy to use. Only app I have found that does a GET to http to post data. Very useful with eventghost and the webserver Plugin for EG (eventghost for windows) very simple to get it communicating for home automation. Missing one star because I seem to have 2 problems. One is when it updates via webpages. Using the variables for the Fence Name it will send the same fence name for other fences. Problem 2. I set a 1000 ft and 2500 ft fence and it will pop me outside them quite often. When I haven't even moved

I have tried several other apps for geofencing, but this one gives me consistent results! I really appreciate being able to enter numbers for the location and radius. Excellent app! Highly recommended! Many thanks to the developer... (I'm using a Galaxy Note 2 N7100).

Tried over a dozen geofencing apps which all had issues, then tried this one and it beats all the rest. More accurate, more reliable and easy to use. Great support and documentation, with an online forum monitored by the developers who are very responsive to suggestions for improvement. We use it to track over 50 geofences in classic car navigation rallies and it just works. Highly recommended app.
